Dear friends, under the first episode of "Director Please Advise" last night, the smell of gunpowder is full of gunpowder, and the big drama you are looking forward to is not unexpected.
When it comes to the pilot film, as soon as Bi Zhifei appears, everyone talks about him behind his back.
In the back director's room, Xiang Guoqiang crossed his hands and laughed: He is a phenomenon-level director.
Liang Long cooperated with the answer, pretending to be curious and asking: Is it a particularly controversial film? (Do you still need to ask?) Who doesn't know, and even if they don't, don't check your opponents before you come? ）
Xiang Guoqianghui: It is a movie with the lowest rating at Douban. He laughed dismissively.
Liang Long saw that the hilarity was not a big deal, and added: That is also quite cattle.
Bi Zhifei invited actors in the studio, he introduced that he wanted to shoot "Spring in a Small Town", this movie is the first of the hundred years of Chinese films, very powerful, in the hearts of filmmakers can be said to be a god-like existence. As a result, Bi Zhifei said that he wanted to make this movie, and everyone was very surprised, indicating that he did not trust his ability, on the other hand, he was afraid that he would spoil the movie.
Degna gave a thumbs up: Great, dared to choose "Spring in a Small Town".
Cai Kangyong looked at the ceiling and carefully considered the wording: Director Bi, first chose "Spring in a Small Town", which surprised me very much, if he had the courage to adapt a classic work, he would first be very courageous. (Using two "firsts", it can be seen that he is not very optimistic about him)
The producer's room in the back was awkwardly quiet for a few seconds, and then Chen Zhixi suddenly sighed, and Hao Lei laughed a little.
Chen Zhixi's expression was embarrassed: I don't think I understand why this director should choose such a difficult work.
Fang Li then expressed his opinion: Because you were beaten to two points and two points by Douban, it is so-called vulgar, well, you are now going to chase the literature and art of that year, then you may be chasing the wrong thing. Chen Zhixi nodded. Wang Jing: If there are some strange effects, I am afraid that I will be scolded to death by Mr. Fei Mu's admirers.
Obviously, everyone is not optimistic about Bi Zhifei's decision, which is originally a requirement for an adaptation of the work, other directors are sure to choose, and the adaptation space is large, such as "Journey to the West", "Nezha", "Alien". Or what he is good at, such as Cai Kangyong's choice of "Water Margin" with the theme of Peking Opera, and Degna's choice of literary and artistic films. Everyone takes a safe route, after all, no one wants to be eliminated at the beginning, as a result, Bi Zhifei does not know how to think, chose a hundred Chinese first, it is already difficult to be fruitless, it is almost impossible to be brilliant, so he is pushing himself into the fire pit.
Li Chengru said very directly: You dare to challenge this work, and I understand why your Douban score is two point two.
Obviously, when it came time to choose an actor, no one chose him, and he stood awkwardly on the stage.
After the show, he invited Niu Junfeng again, was rejected again, and the actors he found himself also questioned him in various ways, no matter what, after going through difficulties, he was finally presented to the audience in its entirety.
After the film was released, the film jury first gave affirmation, the evaluation was still very high, using the word "favorite", and also compared it with the mirror of another film in detail, saying that it was very helpful for the audience to understand how the director worked, and the tone was high and fierce.
Bi Zhifei was said to cry, the previous grievances, unfair treatment, at this moment was released, vows: No matter what happened before, anyway, I want to be a good director. He choked up again as he spoke. The crowd applauded fiercely, and Bao Bell smiled approvingly.
At this point, you think Bi Zhifei will be smoothly whitewashed? no！ no！ no! too young to simple!
Chen Zhixi wanted to suppress The First Yang, first gave him a meal of Kakaqua, and then gently, gently, asked a question: Everyone has a different level and depth of interpretation of this movie. What interpretation do you think is the film that makes it the first of the top 100 Chinese films in a hundred years?
This question seems to be nothing, but there is a hidden mystery, other movies, you can express your own views, but the first hundred years of Chinese films, you can not say it yourself, it must have a standard answer, and the film school teachers teach, must have said, very important to the basic skills of the director.
But Bi Zhifei may have been exaggerated, or perhaps taken lightly, he stood on the stage, touched his stomach, like a leader's speech, first said: Teacher Chen mentioned it particularly well. (Generally speaking, the status or ability is higher than the person who asks the question to say so, if you are named in class, come first, I am afraid that I will not be beaten)
I also feel very fortunate to adapt such a work, and I also have the honor to introduce this work to a large audience (how does it sound so much like an award speech?). ）
In 1948, the mainstream was focused on some wars and the turmoil after the war, but director Fei Mu wrote a story between two men and a woman from a unique perspective, he did not write a love triangle, he wrote about a helplessness in life, people who love each other may not be together... (I couldn't go on, I said a whole bunch of it anyway.) Who on the stage is not professional, but also use you science popularization, really when people are asking you for advice! It's fun to dig a pit and jump in)
Finally, he commented: The aesthetic concept of the East and the West, the West is realism a lot of times, but this kind of artistic conception in the East, this kind of blank space, in fact, allows us to make up for a lot of different things, I think maybe each of us in the East director this aspect I think to strengthen. This sentence provoked the anger of the crowd. (So his final conclusion was that the Oriental director should strengthen the ??? ）
The film critics directly said: If Director Bi just shut up and didn't talk about it, I think it would be a great plus for his performance today, but your interpretation just now makes me think that you really haven't studied Chinese film history well!
This statement is very heavy, Bi Zhifei denied it on the spot.
But the teacher of the film critics did not give him a chance to explain, and made it clear that he did not want to listen to him: I think this is not a matter of communication, you go directly to see the historical materials of Chinese film history, but it is true that in the eighties Jiang Wen gave this film to the chairman of the French Film Manual, saying that the French people saw it and exclaimed, neorealism is in China.
Bi Zhifei tried to explain again. The teacher interrupted again: But not as you just said, Western movies are realistic, And Eastern movies are freehand, not so simple. Bi Zhifei was speechless and could only nod.
Later, there were constantly teachers to comment on Bi Zhifei's views on oriental aesthetics and Western aesthetics, denying, hitting, disapproving, and even using the word "meiya", and the temperature of the scene dropped to the freezing point. (A professional review, the audience listened to the straight trembling, the filmmaker listened, the expression was serious) Bi Zhifei finally did not know how to refute, can only use "not accept" to express his resistance.
Backstage came Xiang Guoqiang's voice (how to say that Bi Zhifei has him, he seems to look down on Bi Zhifei): he has no innovative things, the same as the original touch. While talking and laughing, Bao Bell listened from the side, not daring to speak. Xiang Guoqiang: As an adaptation, he is too close to the original work, and there will be no way to distinguish his personal ability to deal with those links.
The program group that did things finally opened the wheat for Li Chengru (there were several close-up shots of this old man before, and it felt like paving the way for this moment):
You didn't pay attention to one of the most crucial questions, is this his work? May I answer to you, if I draw a basic image of a red mold, is this work yours? It just goes to show that you're a bit like it.
We are here today, film critics, producers, including me, Bi Zhifei, we are all on your one pawn, he is opportunistic, he knows that if he plays other works, I am afraid he will not be able to play, not sure which high person to give him the idea, simply you get "Spring in a Small Town", but he knows that he does not know why, when the column asks questions, he can't answer.
I'm not saying no to this slow, I'm even against a lot of fast-paced now, it's almost dizzying, but you take it out now, it may not be suitable, you choose something with such a slow pace, that is in that era can still be accepted, in the end is the information age, there are more works I hope you dig, I hope you go to create, you don't have to paint people's red molds anymore.
Anyway I express my attitude, I do not admit that it is his work!
These words directly pushed Bi Zhifei to the point of being targeted by everyone.
The teacher of the film critics directly said: Those who learn from me are born, and those who are like me die.
At this time, the person who dug the pit for Bi Zhifei finally spoke, chen Zhixi slowly said to the film critics (??? Because it's been too long, I don't remember right, but also with Teacher Meng you discussed (also dare not offend the big guy),
I remember when I was in college watching "Spring in a Small Town", when my mentor said that why it was new enough and avant-garde, it was because at that time, it opened with the narration of the heroine, and the narrative was carried out, (the jury teacher gave a thumbs up: You are awesome!) The beginning of psychological realism)
Women have regained the right to speak that has been lost for thousands of years, so it is the vanguard (is it possible that Chen Zhixi went back to her notes from that year?). ），
This is why, just now I will ask you, why the first of the hundred years of the top 100 movies will be the first of this movie, in fact, it contains many layers of parts, with the passage of time, our values and emotional views will change, then such an emotional state, may be in that era, it is pioneering, but the present is not, we can still identify with such an emotional view, in that era, we will think that they are all paying personalities, will each of us be sacrificing, we are considering each other, Don't let the other person... (It's also Barabala who says a bunch of values and the current conflict)
Values are certainly undeniably outdated, but isn't this a director's competition? And it's not newer than anyone else's ideas! You can say that Bi Zhifei's ability is not good, but it is said that the film he chose does not conform to the current concept, and it is a bit of a suspicion of showing off. You're new! You're not going to heaven! Later, Fang Li also said a bunch of feminism-related, women's status or something, the more he said the more biased, looking at the posture, I am afraid that I am not going to shout "Long live women" on the spot.
I still have a lot of sympathy for Bi Zhifei, to say how good his work is, it is indeed like that, but the show is bad here, at the beginning to give him a strong praise, and then to blame him a little wrong, a fierce criticism, the audience of course can not understand realism and freehandism, but there is hilarity to see happy, the final result, although Bi Zhifei won, but no one is willing to give him a producer, defeated.
Looking forward to the next issue, I don't know what controversy the show has, what kind of moths.
